| General settings | |
| AVL unit status update interval (minimum) | Set the minimum interval for AVL status updates to ensure continuous updates, even if the GPS unit is offline. Normally, updates occur with every GPS update. |
| Vehicle inventory GPS online status timeout | Set the time interval after which a GPS unit is considered offline if no status update is received. |
| Log vehicle inventory to database | When selected, vehicle inventory data like plugin version in use, vehicle type, Wi-Fi status, and more are collected for use in the Vehicle inventory task. |
| Vehicle inventory data persistence interval | Set the interval for saving vehicle inventory data to the database to minimize data loss if the plugin restarts. |
| Log GPS data to database | When selected, the system logs all real-time location data received from GPS units into the database. |
| Log GPS metadata to database | When selected, the system logs all real-time metadata received from GPS units
into the database. CAUTION: Logging GPS data and
metadata to a database increases the size of the Fleet Monitoring plugin’s database.
It can overload your system if your infrastructure is insufficient.
|
| Log GPS cardholder access to database | When selected, the system processes the cardholder access events received from your GPS units and stores the data. This data is used in the AVL cardholder access report. |
